You take your lens off, flip it over and hold it in front of the camera body.
I took a few pics of each end of the focal distance and focal range. Here's some comparison shots that show how close you can get. (I don't know why I have a singapore 50 cent piece, but whatever...)
None of these shots are cropped.
Baz.
In order,
55mm right way
55mm reversed
18mm right way
18mm reversed

Great shots!!
Be careful mate. You should not really take shots, without a lens connected. The camera generates electro magnetism and can draw free floating dust particles onto your sensor.
You don't have a spare lens? It is much better to have a 50mm attached, then reverse another 50mm in front of it. Then you can tape the lens together.
